Rock vs Sidewalks Entertainment

Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon where a person sees a face, object, animal or some other meaningful image from a nebulous stimulus. Basically pareidolia is the act of seeing something where the image of that thing visually emerges from an ambiguous image. Common examples of the type of objects people perceive are animals, faces, or other everyday objects. Clouds, rocks and other formations are the typical sources for pareidolia. The Man in the Moon is an example of pareidolia with which most people are familiar. Rules of the Game In Rock-IT! a random rock is selected from a set of 52 rocks.
